I have a jellyfin instance running with radarr/sonarr/… for my media needs on my vps.
Problem is that I don’t have huge amount of storages and I would like to expand the storage until I’m able to make a personal server ( I don’t have space where I live for even a mini pc rn ).
From the options that I have been considering the contabo ( my vps provider ) storage expansion are quite costly so I have been thinking about hetzner storage boxes or a backblaze b2 bucket mounted with rclone/s3fs.
The problem with backblaze is that I use hardlinks with my *arr suite so to save up on space so I’m not sure if I can mount them preserving the hard links.
What would be your thought or reccomendation? Should I get a hetzner storage box and just mount it or is there anything else I could do until I manage to make my own personal server?
Be careful that sometimes these providers will shut you down for hosting media servers. Even if your content is not illegally obtained.
You got a friend to host with?
I have an off site backup with a friend, but I’ve never tried streaming from them.
I’m most likelly the only one among my friends who even own’s a smartphone/pc ( I live in Croatia in countryside where tech is seen as evil )
I mean… they’re not totally wrong.
Agreed
